About this experience
You can walk around Dubai for a long time, immersing yourself in its atmosphere and examining details. But there are places that you must visit, even if time is limited. This tour is just about such places: cozy streets of Al Seef, Sail, the local Venice, Palm Island, Burj Khalifa and more. As a person who has lived in the UAE for 15 years, I will tell you how the city has changed before my eyes and what it lives by today.
What to expect
1️⃣ Al Seef. An old district on the canal with narrow streets and cozy cafes. Here reigns a special atmosphere of traditional Arab life.
2️⃣ Dubai Frame. You will see Dubai in a new way through it: from one side you will see the Old Town, from the other - the New. Dubai is a real work of art, and the frame beautifully highlights this fact.
3️⃣ Burj Al Arab. No need for words, as this is Dubai's calling card.
4️⃣ Dubai Venice and Al Kasr Hotel (Souk Madinat Jumeirah). Another man-made miracle, a city on water with architecture in an Arab style.
5️⃣ The Palm Jumeirah. Finally we are on the palm! We will drive through the artificial island and see the beautiful panorama of Dubai Marina skyscrapers.
6️⃣ Dubai Mall and Burj Khalifa (Dubai Mall, Burj Khalifa, Aquarium). The largest mall in the world and the tallest skyscraper. Not visiting here and not seeing the dancing fountain show (held at 7:00 pm) is the same as not seeing the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
If there is time and energy left, we can include in the program:
- Ras Al Khor Bird Sanctuary - a natural habitat for flamingos 🦩
- Miracle Garden - bright compositions and sculptures made of 50 million flowers 🌸
- Butterfly Garden - 15,000 species under 9 huge domes. You will not only appreciate the various patterns on their wings, but also observe the transformation of a caterpillar into a butterfly. 🦋
- Dubai Canal with a promenade where you can walk and admire the city reflecting in the water. 💦
- Palm Tower observation deck. 360 panorama at a height of 240 meters. 🏙
